Save Ferris with The Untouchables, Hoist the Colors, Sat. 12/1, 7 PM

It’s been over a year and a half since the rebooted Save Ferris made their triumphant return to Orange County— festival dates withstanding. Following the release of their EP, a lengthy globe-spanning tour and in the midst of working on a full length album, Monique Powell leads her band of local heroes back in time for the holidays. Despite the acrimonious and continuously controversial circumstances that surround the original lineup’s disbandment, the fact remains that with the singer, the group continues to bring their feel-good brand of peppy ska to the masses. The group is far more polished than their initial run, which means that a ton of fun will be in store.
